Windows Mail 'find' works sporadically

Sometimes Windows Mail 'find' works, but when I use it it will not work unless I reboot my computer and sometimes not even then.  This happens on my computer and my wife.

Try to repair the database (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) and if that does not work, check outwww.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3

  • How do I set up Windows mail to work with an iphone5 in mode 'hot spot' as the internet connection.

    My internet is now via an iphone5 used as a hot spot.  How can I set up Vista "windows mail" to use with this? I've always used Windows mail when I had a high traditional rural snail speed dial and would still do that?  Thanks for any help you can offer!

    The hotspot just iPhone connects you to the Internet, the e-mail application does not really know the difference (as much as he knows, he might as well be a Starbucks WiFi at the coffee shop).

    It seems that you are properly connected to the hotspot, but that your e-mail program is not configured to download emails to iCloud.  Your hotspot is actually not related to that.  The mail app will download mail, regardless of how you connect to the web.

    To set up your e-mail to iCloud program, you'll want to go to the account options in the e-mail software and add your iCloud account.

    If your drag / drop off the mail will find themselves in some folder you \drop in.

    A better solution would be to use the add-on from the import export tools if you have several nested folders as it will import a folder and the subfolders. The add-on will recreate your folder structure. It you choose to import the messages in a folder and its subfolders.

  • Windows Mail problem with setting up a new email address

    I have a Gateway with Windows Vista Home Premium laptop. I have an email account already set up in Windows Mail that works very well. I try to add another e-mail account. In windows Mail I click Tools, accounts and then select Add. then the email account selected. I went and set up the pop server and smtp server correctly, but for some reason I can't access this email account. I have double and even triple to verify the password. I must be overlooking something, but I just can't understand what it is. Can someone help me please. I can't really find any reason why it does not work. I'm not a newbie and know my way around the computer well enough. But I am confused.

  • Export of email from Windows Mail to Outlook 2003

    Can I export e-mails from Windows Vista Mail to Outlook 2003

    1. the process requires Outlook and Windows Mail being installed and functional on the machine do the transfer.

    2. to move the e-mail messages, export to Microsoft Outlook (or Exchange) of in Windows Mail.  This places the e-mail messages in the Outlook Personal Folders file that is attached to the default Outlook profile.  When you then open Outlook, your messages will be already there, no need to import.  Export emails from OE/Windows Mail still works better than import with Outlook.

    3. to move Contacts, export them Windows Mail for one. CSV (Comma Separated Values) file and import the given in Outllook.

    Windows mail was working fine until about 2: 30 EST 2011-12-14 and tried to send an email and got the above error msg.

    Check with your mail service provider to make sure that there is not an intermittent interruption of service.  If you have webmail capabilities, you can also check.  Otherwise, compact and repair the database (www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/) and if that doesn't help, remove your e-mail account, close and reopen WinMail and then add it back back.  Also check 3rd party program interference such as antivirus software (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).
